Is this satire? Don’t give your LLM access to your trading account or bank account.

Oh darn I used the word just now everything I said is invalidated! That’s too bad!

FWIW, I’m aware of that heuristic too which is why I intentionally use the word “just” as a meta heuristic to filter a certain type of person.

Feel free to actually respond to what I’m discussing. There is little to no value in doing real time video games using a physical input device at this stage in AI.

Right, we have not even solved games in the non-real time environment, so why bother adding additional constraints like “on real hardware in real time”. This is exactly like Tesla trying to switch from LIDAR to cameras before self driving is even solved. It’s avoiding the real harder challenge and going off on inane tangents. John is essentially bike shedding.

In this case, John is going off on this inane tangent because of his prior experience with hardware and video games instead of challenging himself to solve the actual hard and open problems.

I understand that. Doing games in real time is just a performance problem that can be solved with more compute or inane optimizations. It’s not interesting research.

I was really hoping to see something cool. Such a great team of smart people, but this is just John reverting to what he’s comfortable with and going off on some nonsense tangent. Hardware and video games. I doubt this is going to yield anything interesting at all.

Anything that mentions tesseract is about 10 years out of date at this point.

Surprised these people had to iterate and run these experiments. I thought all of this was common knowledge in books. Maybe it was an experience before this was common knowledge, but it’s not uncommon to see “painfully figure something out instead of cracking open a book, write a blog post about it like it’s some new found knowledge”.

Not surprising. They’re almost assuredly trained on reddit data. We should probably call this “the reddit simp bias”.

They’ve been spouting this for years. I have yet to see an actual practitioner who’s job it is to collect data for these LLMs say it’s actually an issue.

They’ve been spouting it for years because it’s an entertaining thought and scratches an itch to many different reader bases. That doesn’t make it true.

The most annoying thing about Hasan or any other streamer on any point in the political axis is their constant need to have “the right opinion” instead of bringing about any sort of actual change or reduction of suffering. They sit in a room, have all their meals delivered, and spout “the right opinion” to whoever their target audience is. Honestly, I don’t know how they don’t get bored of it. Probably all the money and attention helps, and some fake rationalization on how they’re the voice of reason and light in the world.

This is phrenology nonsense and it’s shocking to see people almost nodding along in the comments. This is the same kind of nonsense people spout when they say they’re great interviewers and “just know”, when actual studies show they very much do not.

The goal to automate is to reduce suffering. Full stop. It’s not to “save time”. STEM types like to pretend they’re stoic cold calculating robots and everything is objective and they don’t mind doing some repetitive 5 minute task every day, because they saw some xkcd comic about efficiency. Maybe they pretend they don’t mind simply so they can smugly post the xkcd comic every time someone new asks why they’re suffering through some repetitive slog.

All the comments reacting with hate because they know, deep down, it’s true. They’re not the main character. Nobody cares about their hyper encrypted nix home server with the perfect firewall setup. And they’re certainly not getting those hours of their life back.

It depends. If someone complains about something and then fixes it, I’ll take them over the toxic optimist. There is nothing inherently wrong with complaining, what matters is the intent behind it. A complaint can be constructive, mean, funny, or any other number of good or bad things.

Hahaha they’re cooked. GPT 4.5 was a massive flop. GPT 4.1 is barely an improvement after over a year. Now they’re grasping at straws. Anyone actually in this field who wasn’t a grifter knew improvements are sigmoidal.

All the original talent has already left too.

> Pure, unadulterated, revolting whining from a spoiled tech child.

As opposed to you, the perfect human?

> blue collar jobs would take much longer to recover

So what are you saying? We should treat everyone like shit so everyone is equal? Or that only blue collar people have the right to complain?

How about we focus on raising the quality of living for everyone.

Darn I wonder if systems could be modified so that common mistakes become less common or if documentation could be written once and read multiple times by different people.

Is it really losing them money if investors throw fistfuls of cash at them for it

The owner of Gumroad is a millionaire, but for some reason decided to crank up the cost of charges from 2.9% to 12.9% a few years ago. Needless to say, most people who don’t like being screwed switched to Stripe or another provider. That’s all you need to know about Gumroad.

I just want to fine tune deepseek v3 chat but it’s not possible or easy for regular consumers

Neat. Maybe you guys should make a fine tuning platform for deepseek specifically, with a fine tune API similar to openAIs. You could expand out into hosting those models too.

There are companies out there that probably do none of these things and are x1000 more successful from a revenue or market cap perspective. Seems like the biggest successes are simply being at the right place at the right time and not being a complete idiot. Nobody wants to hear that though.

Respect for standing up for what he believes in. A lot of people in this industry would have no problem building drones that bomb children if it gave them a good “total comp”.

This is a sign of the beginning of the end for them. When you’re rotten to the core you do things like this instead of actually innovating and creating new great products. It doesn’t end well long term.

So his timing was slightly off. I don’t know why people expected LLMs to improve exponentially. Your iPhone now doesn’t look much different than the one 10 years ago. GPT-3 or arguably GPT-4 was the first iPhone moment, everything else will be gradual improvements unless fundamental discoveries are found, but those happen seemingly randomly.

I refuse to listen to anyone who has done nothing in life but maximize their wealth and power, play corporate political games, and grift investors for all they're worth. Shame the actual innovators don't blog much, usually because they're too busy doing the actual work.

Why do people keep talking about this? We get it, Chinese models are censored by CCP law. Can we stop talking about it now? I swear this must be some sort of psyop at this point.
